I stopped by H&R Block to talk about what this tax season means for hardworking Americans in our community.

This year, families will see bigger paychecks, no tax on tips and overtime, and a 300% increase in the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction. In California, every dollar matters. I will keep fighting to ensure families can afford life here and keep more of what they earn.

Buying a home is one of the biggest investments a family will ever make.

We must stop criminals from exploiting our housing market while ensuring new federal rules do not make homeownership even harder. I appreciated the opportunity to thank Director Gacki for working with us to strike the right balance between security and opportunity.

I was proud to join Santiago Charter Middle School to talk about financial literacy and the American Dream.

It's never too early to start building smart financial habits. I am proud of these students for taking charge of their futures and preparing to build their own American Dream.

I convened a roundtable with local leaders to strengthen support for domestic violence survivors.

Survivors deserve protection, resources, and real pathways to rebuild their lives. I will keep fighting for policies that empower frontline organizations and put prevention, safety, and accountability first.

America’s defense starts at home.

At the AIA Regional Summit, I discussed my DOMINANCE Act and the urgent need to secure our critical mineral supply chains. Southern California’s aerospace innovators, both large and small, are essential to keeping America safe, competitive, and ahead of our adversaries. 

I was glad welcome leaders from Association of the ROK Army US Chapter in our Mission Viejo office this week.

I will always fight to preserve our vital US-ROK alliance and maintain a free and open Indo-Pacific.

This week, week celebrated Presidents’ Day, a moment to honor strong, bold American leadership.

Freedom does not happen by accident. It is fought for, preserved, and upheld every single day. I am grateful for President Trump’s America First leadership and steadfast commitment to defending our nation. God bless our Presidents!

I am thrilled that Team Young has helped return over $32 million back to taxpayers from federal agencies.

If you need help with a federal agency, please reach out to my office. We’re here to serve you always.

Sincerely,

Young Kim
